Subject: [PATCH] kprobes/x86: Use copy_from_kernel_nofault() to read from unsafe address

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@...nel.org>

Read from an unsafe address with copy_from_kernel_nofault() in
arch_adjust_kprobe_addr() because this function is used before checking
the address is in text or not. Syzcaller bot found a bug and reported
the case if user specifies inaccessible data area,
arch_adjust_kprobe_addr() will cause a kernel panic.

Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAKHoSAs2rof6vQVBw_Lg_j3QNku0CANZR2qmy4eT7R5Lo8MFbg@mail.gmail.com/
